    ....well, darn it.....I cut it twice...and it's still too short.

    "he not busy being born is busy dying" - Bob Dylan My credo for life from the first time I heard it in the summer of '65.

    Wow....that's cool. I am experienced. My parents were not really sure what was happening when my music suddenly changed for Simon/Garfunkel to Are you experienced?

    Really nice stuff. Is the butterfly piece and the mounting piece different pieces? The grain appears to match.

    That is great. Really like the clock idea. I have a similar in the queue.

    Thanks! for all the ideas. Here is my solution. A blade box. Pretty basic. 1/4" plywood, sliding plexiglass top. Holds 16 tubes.

    Thanks! for all this info. Any problem w/taking a pinned blade and knocking the pin out. When I got the Wen, I bought some pin blades. I have already done this and does not seem to be a problem. Just got my first spiral blades. Will get into those today. Got 6 patterns glued up yesterday.....ready to go. Cold, frozen morning. I'll be in the basement.

    Thank! This is good info. Good ideas. Once again, I'm having too much fun figuring /building stuff for my shop.

    So far I have about 15 sizes/kinds of blades. I got a 20 pack of tubes to keep them in. Looking at building some kind of holder to keep them in. How many different blades do you have and how many different blades do you actually use?

    Nothi'n makes a shop more like a shop than have the supervisor around. Cute pupp'ner dog.

    ...you know.....I think a shop that is not cluttered.... ....well, there isn't much going on in that shop. .....just say'n.

    This is a cool idea. We can all rob ideas for our shops from everyone else.. ....so, I'm very blessed to have two shops. A garage shop, for the big stuff, and a basement shop for the fine work. I live in the house that my dad built and I grew up in. Many of the tools were his and the tools I Iearned on. The basement shop is one of the back bedrooms in the basement. Man caves w/pin ball machines and big tvs are ok for a few hours....but these caves.....they are for a life time of fun.

    The sun/moon was my first scroll saw project that I painted. It was painted after. I use spray paint. It takes some time because it has to be taped off to paint the different colors. If it's going to be a saved project, I would spray a clear coat sealer after all the painting is done.

    What are you using this software to do?

    Not my dog....but very nice. What exactly is fiber board?
  16. justdraftn
    .....may be too late....... I have a stack of patterns printed out and ideas to modify each one in a different way.

    Second project....adding some definition to the sun and the moon. This is just too much fun.

    I like this a lot. I'm playing w/this idea to embellish band saw boxes.
  19. justdraftn
    Wow......

    Not trying to be "too" nosey....but... do you set this up on an assembly line kind of thing?? Rough cut all the pieces, glue patterns to all of them, then start cutting. Are you setup to receive cc payments? Is that hard to get setup?
  21. justdraftn
    Wow..... that is really cool. How much time to think you have in each piece?

    Completed my first "official" scroll project. I love the sun/moon images. I have them all over. Now, I have one that I created. I put a couple of coats of deft on it. Decided that there was no better place to put it than on my new cabinet from where it came. The first of many to come. First lesson learned.....relax.

    Thank you! I have been trying to find how the tape is a lubricant. I was looking at the adhesive.....not. polyvinyl carbamate If you need a chemistry lesson, google that. The Release Agent The release agent is made of a complex combination of compounds of oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen. It is the most complicated part of the tape as if it is too oily it won't stay as a tape roll and if it's too sticky, you won't be able to use the roll. https://www.mayzo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/PSTC-Release-Coat-Paper.pdf

    Thanks! all for the comments. I have impressed myself w/this one. I needed the planer yesterday to mill the material for the drawers... it takes less than a minute to switch the machines. Created a couple of drawers. Nothing fancy. I had to stretch my cabinet from the plans for the length of the ss and the in/out feed tables for the planer, I have a drawer on each side.
